I don't know your easy way but it is possible. Get sysdate and pass it as a parameter to the job that creates the file.... Got to use sequence

If you wish you can handle the same in unix also

When you say you are writing data to files, are you using the Sequential File stage? If so, you can just append the system date parameter to the end of your file name: /path/FileName_#DSJobStartDate#.txt
